FROM DOWN BELOW...

Do not lose sight
If it shines too bright,
Most fail to see
Only a few are free

Above they rise
To amazing highs
Their roots did grow
From down below

Let banners fly
In cloudy skies
The winds do die
The winds do die

The sun will show
The soul will grow
Before you know
Before you know

I love the feel and sound of this! The repetition works so well and adds a - is it a swaying feeling? not sure exactly...but I like it. Wisdom in this. I love the first stanza, but then the last is so good, too. It's as if I am swaying and thinking about life, and nature, and history...lost in the moment.
